Game Market 1983

‘Ha... I can't believe I'm seeing that opening again. Memories... "

The opening of Raige Racer 4, which started with cybernetic punk music, started when Nagase Lako woke up.

The light source effect coming from the window showed the possibility of advancement of CG technology in the 90s as a whole.

Shortly thereafter, as she was dressed up and headed for the tunnel in the city, five or six sports cars appeared to be drifting cheerfully as they walked down the street, and Lear sliding into the video as if touching the guardrail was making the viewers feel uneasy.

“Oh, cool. ”

Although it may have been thanks to the popular cyber formula on TV recently, the drift shown at the opening seemed to have pierced the blockage.

At that moment, as the scene changed, she was walking through the tunnel, lifting up her broken heel, making a sad face, and eventually leaving the tunnel barefoot, she stopped the sports car approaching her on a hitchhike and finished the opening video.

Finally, people applauded her smiling face toward the driver's seat.

In fact, I didn't understand why a woman was walking in the tunnel on her way to work, but this video was considered to be an all-time opening because of her facial performance.

The expression on his face when he sighed, looking at his broken heels.

After escaping the tunnel, her long sigh leaves her head wide open.

Finally, the smile on her lower lip towards the protagonist was an unprecedented scene in game history.

“Let's go, Reykora...”

“Wow, CG technology has improved a lot...”

“Shit. When does that launch? I want to try it fast. ”

But only one opening video was released today.

NANCO is due to launch next year and has closed new conferences with Sensoni, including Iron Fist 2.

“Just... next year? Damn. Should I buy three on the way home? ”

Sensoni's new conference set the user's expectations on fire with stunning opening footage has since launched a variety of games.

Among them, a 3D game called Crash Banter, where a wolf fled a massive rock, brought unexpected tension and elicited a good response.

Due to Sensoni's impactful support policy for gaming companies, their introduction to many third-parties in a short period of time has continued endlessly.

I checked a text message looking for me and walked to the Pentagon booth while I was watching their conference for a moment.

‘Now that I've been sober, I should start preparing for our conference. ’

Coming back to the Pentagon booth, through waves of spectators, there were numerous users gathered 30 minutes before the conference.

He squeezed the gap between the narrow crowds in front of the Pentagon booth, which was tightly surrounded by the impossible to move forward.

“Hey, excuse me. ”

“Mister, don't let this fool you. ”

“Ugh? No, it's...”

“This is our spot. Go around back there. ”

As I turned my head as much as I could, this time, I had to meet the visitors who were waiting at the terminal to receive Idol's special costume.

“Hey, over there!! ”

“No, I'm just going to pass through. ”

“I almost got into a fight over a guy who snitched. If you say something nice, step back quietly. ”

Oh... shit. The road back to the booth is blocked by visitors...

In the end, I had only to go around the Pentagon booth once before returning to the event.

As I showed up, Kaori, who was rolling his feet in the booth, came to me screaming furiously.

“Director, where have you been? ”

“Oh, well...”

“We're less than five minutes away from the event. ”

“Really? I'm glad. Perfect timing. ”

“ · · · · · ·. You really don't have a crisis, do you? ”

“I'm in crisis. I'm not preparing for a conference for a day or two. ”

“But today...”

I took off my coat and changed into a suit for the conference. I checked my watch and asked Kaori.

“What about the dragon emblem? ”

“We left an hour ago. ”

“Okay, then.”

When I received the microphone given to me by staff, I turned to the staff in charge of the curtain surrounding the stage and shouted.

“Let's get started.”

Uhhhhhhh!!!

As the dragon emblem 2 theme song flows from speakers installed at both ends of the stage as the curtain rapidly rises, the screams of those who have been waiting for the Pentagon conference begin to spill.

“Whoa!!! ”

“Here we go!! ”

“Dragon emblem!! Information about the second episode is finally here!! ”

Even though I had just announced the start of the event, the temperature inside the booth became hot as if it had risen 2-3 degrees. With gleaming eyes, the gamers' eyes feel like angry predators wanting to quickly spit out information about Dragon Emblem 2 and swallow their chubby saliva.

“Shall I say hello first? Or should I start with information about the dragon emblem? ”

Like a boxer throwing a light chuck, I relaxed and lightly blew a comment towards the people in front of the booth.

“I've been waiting for a year since CES last year. Now that the Complete LaTemperature has been launched, please do it every single day...”

I almost burst out of laughter in the voice of a user who appeared to be a fan of the Dragon Emblem series. After the first episode, leaving so much pastry behind, it's already been three years, so...

I put the microphone in my mouth, smiling at the cries of such users.

“I'm sorry to keep you waiting for so long. And now, thanks to your support, the second episode of Dragon Emblem 2. Let's begin our presentation about the age of wars. ”

“Oooh!! ”

Lowering the microphone, a woman appeared on the screen installed onstage with the lighting fixture darkened, lowering her waist slightly towards the people gathered in front of the booth.

A woman in a dark temple with her hands together in a priestly garment raises her prayers. She is a hero who can be recognized at first glance by her fans of Dragon Emblem. It was the High Priestess Katrina.

“Ahhh!! Right. Last year, at the end of the CES campaign, the Holy Father Croel was resurrected. ”

“Khh... I was more excited about the resurrection of the previous protagonists. No one ever appeared in the first episode...”

As he said, when CES released the Dragon Emblem, Katrina and Croel's appearance at the end caused tremendous response to spectators at the time.

Does that mean that for those of you who enjoyed Dragon Emblem 1 so much, their absence was a terrible waste?

Thanks to this, after releasing promotional videos at CES, I heard from Jun Fei that magazines were very tired at the request of gamers who wanted to release more information in the second episode.

Bright lights spread out in Katrina's hands, praying to God in the dark, and the power of God in response to her prayers began to illuminate the shape of a single person.

Viewers were elastic with their eyes wide open in an incredibly high quality promotional video compared to a year ago.

“Wait, that's 2D or 3D...? ”

Clearly, it looks like a hand-drawn 2D, but the odd heterogeneity of the character's movements is starting to tilt the heads of those who were looking at the screen.

“What you're seeing here is a cartoon rendering of a cell animation. The Dragon Emblem event cutscenes and ending footage will all be produced with cell animation. ”

“Cough...”

“Awesome. Awesome. ”

On the screen, King Croel appeared as a young man who appeared in the first episode of the Dragon Emblem. Croel, clothed in simple, gorgeous blue armor, leaves the temple with Katrina, and her old fighting companions begin to appear one by one in front of them.

“Ahh!! Mirea of the Flame!! ”

“Karas the Sniper!! ”

Every time one of the heroes appeared, even the users began to shout the name of one person, because they were impressed. King Croel glances at his colleagues, whom he has met for a long time.

“Sure. Let's strike back. ”

After that, everyone who was gathered in front of the temple flew up into the battlefield in a blue light.

Around the time the light of the Heroes disappearing Asrahi fades.

As the title of Dragon Emblem 2 appeared in the center of the screen, visitors started screaming like screams.

In the subsequent playback screens, Dragon Emblem 2 showed a magnificent map (MAP) that seemed to have shifted a huge fantasy world.

And as I moved to the center of the stage, I recited the prepared words.

“In this dragon emblem 2, you can choose between two forces. ”

Then the battlefield on the screen began to turn red and blue, revealing the current state of the exhibition.

“This is the current exhibition situation on the continent of Dragon Emblem. You will live as mercenaries in this battlefield at the beginning of the game. Of course, those of you who enjoy the masterpiece will be able to inherit Raon's data and import characters. ”

No one was so surprised about the character succession because it was the part that was announced in this episode 1. He didn't want to get rid of the protagonist of Episode 1 because everyone was such a hardworking character.

“Now, before we begin the real driving of the second episode of Dragon Emblem... let me tell you about the release date of Dragon Emblem. ”

“Oh!! Finally."

“It's already December, so even if it's hard within the year, it'll be early next year, right? ”

In the midst of all the speculations, I opened my mouth, glancing at the watch.

“It is now 1: 15 pm. ”

When they told me about the issue date, they looked at me, checking the prime time, and they looked odd.

I opened my mouth, raising one's tail as if I were enjoying the reaction of such gamers.

“Well, I guess... about 15 minutes ago, you were handed over to the Pentagon in Akihabara, Tokyo. ”

“ · · · · · ·. ”

“What...? ”

“In other words, today is the release date of the second episode of Dragon Emblem. ”

“Cough!! ”
